http://unclebenoutdoors.blogspot.com/2014/08/short-trips.html
Outdoors with Uncle Ben. Musings about the times that aren't sleep or work. Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after." - Thoreau. Tuesday, August 5, 2014. I get it, I am a broken record. Busy, busy, busy. Two little girls, a new job.where does the time go? No time for this, no time for that. I haven't been out in 'yak bass fishing at all this year. I have not been out chasing trout or salmon with my fly rod this year. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Outdoors with Uncle Ben. Musings about the times that aren't sleep or work. Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after." - Thoreau. Thursday, April 9, 2015. Been awhile, Eh? I am not going to come here and make some grand statements about how profound and precious time is and start making promises for content. I will be the first to say though, it has been a while my friends. I haven't posted, because there hasn't been much for me to show. Found this little ...

The Weary Angler: October 2012
http://thewearyangler.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
8220;Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” ― Oscar Wilde. Thursday, October 25, 2012. Through my recent travels, I have often found myself wondering what has happened to the simple pleasantries of a good hand shake, the idea of looking someone in the eye when you speak with them and the concept of eating a meal without being buried in a phone or computer. Aside from the fact that I think it's just downright rude to be on the phone in a restaurant, don't you want to enjoy that meal? Recently, I ha...

Spring Water: June 2011
http://ckanicki.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 14, 2011. The Cold Water Close to Home. Above is a photo of my friend Mike with a little rainbow caught after first ice out in early March of 2010. Above is a photo of Belle standing along the Rifle River. Another small bow caught in the Rifle while targeting steelhead. During the late spring and summer months the small mouth and rock bass move into the lower sections of the river in large numbers and for those of you who love to chase bass the Rifle lodges some very nice size fish! Last ye...

The Weary Angler: February 2012
http://thewearyangler.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
8220;Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” ― Oscar Wilde. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. That which excites us. I find it strange that, as the years pass, I am excited by things that just wouldn't have done it for me when I was younger. Today, I found myself in my own personal Cialis commercial as I walked into the basement after having been away for a couple days. Sheet rock! Wednesday, February 22, 2012. Even as I've seemed to have forgotten my name these last few days, I have started to make pl...

Thursday, February 2, 2012. I've never seen a Michigan winter like this in all my life" -Frederick T. Kanicki. I've never seen a Michigan winter like this in all my life" -Frederick T. Kanicki. I can't say weather or not the guys got their shanty or if mother nature took it since I had taken an alternate route home since I had some running to do. I can however say when I crossed a bridge down stream the river was wide open and cranking! This photo should give you an idea. That pretty much sums it up.

Spring Water: April 2012
http://ckanicki.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 24, 2012. Trout Opener is Only Days Away in Michigan! Trout opener is quickly approaching in Michigan! I've been receiving phone calls, text messages, emails, etc. It seems as though in the last week, everyone went from talking steelhead to plotting their opening weekend trout trips! Steelhead vs. Spring Streamer Fishing:. Trout fishing. Where it all began. YOU HAVE A FISH! This is where I realized Joe wasn't waiting for that tapping on the rod or the feel of tension of the line on his fin...

The Weary Angler: September 2012
http://thewearyangler.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
8220;Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” ― Oscar Wilde. Friday, September 28, 2012. As I continue to clear off the dust that gathered on the nymphing rig due to a summer of re-aquainting myself with dry flies, I find that I need to dust of my seemingly diminished skills as well. The leaf hatch is in full effect already. I am still amazed at the fish that sometimes come from such a small amount of water and the tiny size morsel they are after as they move for a crumb of a fly. Sadly, another pro...
